EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Dutch sleigh from the 17th century, captured in the early 20th century. The image is part of a French advertising campaign for Liebig Extract of Meat and is now held in a private collection. The scene depicts a picturesque winter day in rural Holland, with an elegant horse-drawn sleigh gliding across a frozen lake. A man dressed in traditional Dutch attire skillfully guides the horses while sitting on the driver's seat, his whip at hand. Beside him sits a woman wearing fashionable clothing of the time, her muff keeping her hands warm against the wintry chill. The advertisement perfectly captures both the beauty and functionality of this mode of transportation during that era. It reflects how people would travel through snowy landscapes to reach their destinations, enjoying both comfort and style along their journey. The chromolithograph technique used to create this print adds depth and vibrancy to every detail - from the colorful clothes worn by both passengers to the harnesses adorning each horse. This artistic medium truly brings out all aspects of rural life during that period. Overall, this stunning image not only serves as an advertisement but also provides us with insight into historical transport methods and fashion trends prevalent in 17th-century Holland.
